Weather in May
Temperature
With the transition into May, Westhoff experiences a subtle uplift in average high-temperatures, adjusting from a warm 78.6°F (25.9°C) in April to a still moderately hot 85.5°F (29.7°C). Nighttime temperature dips to a mean of 67.8°F (19.9°C) during May.Heat index
The average heat index in May is evaluated at a sweltering 96.8°F (36°C). Incorporate special precautions, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is substantial. Sustained activity could cause heatstroke.Research indicates the heat index considers values in shaded locales and with light winds. Being exposed to direct sunshine might trigger a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is a measure that combines air temperature and relative humidity into a single value that indicates how hot the weather feels. The individual's temperature perception can be influenced by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. The sun, when shining directly, can have a significant impact on the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Youths are typically more endangered than adults since they usually sweat less. Their larger skin surface concerning their smaller bodies and higher heat production due to activity further adds to their vulnerability.
Humans rely on perspiration as a cooling mechanism, wherein the evaporating sweat counteracts excessive warmth. In high relative humidity, the body's ability to evaporate heat is diminished, resulting in a heightened feeling of warmth. Rising body temperatures due to excess heat retention could signify impending heat disorders.
